SOFT SUGAR COOKIES with Whipped Cream Cheese Frosting

Today the sun is shining, water is dripping off a wet shingled roof, but it is SNOWY, WINDY & COLD!

As long as mother nature insists on dumping hail and snow, we might as well keep baking! After all…. we can’t pull weeds, plant the garden, mow or rake the lawn!

I’ve been on a cookie kick lately. It really seems to be the only dessert that I can get my fruit loving husband to eat. He doesn’t enjoy sweets like I do. What a shame! I could eat them all, but I keep a dozen or so, and give the rest away to friends & neighbors.

I probably have 1,000 different Sugar Cookie Recipes on file, but for some reason I just keep trying new ones. This recipe comes from the “Worldwide Ward Cookbook.” It is an Old Fashioned Sour Cream Soft Sugar Cookie. If you’re like me, you think they always taste better the next day. It’s true…they soften, and the flavor of the almond and the cream cheese frosting blend together, to give you scrumptious bites!

I added almond extract to the dough, and also tried a New delicious Whipped Cream Cheese Frosting, for you all to try. It’s a bit different than what you might be used to. It is soft & gooey, and not quite as sweet as the typical cream cheese frosting. It would be delicious on Cakes as well. The recipe will be posted on “GET OFF YOUR BUTT & BAKE.”

These cookies aren’t anything fancy….just really good. Enjoy!
